The Democratic party in Highland
county is in poor condition to make a
canvass. Its leadership is goaded to
desperation by repeated defeat, and the
rank and file of the party is disgusted
by the unprincipled Doodle methods of
the leaders. The Gazette gang is too
much ratified to accomplish anything,
and there is no clique that is at the same
time able and willing to take the manage
ment of the party.

The fact that the Democratic veterans
of Highland county were justly indig-
nant at the President for proposing to
return the Rebel flags, could not deter
the Gazette from praising Cleveland and
slurring every hero who wore the blue.
Neither does the strong temperance SEN
timent in the Democratic party prevent
it from declaring that prohibition is
contrary to the teachings of the Bible,
that it breeds lying, hypocrisy, drunk
enness, etc., etc." Patriotism, morality,
common sense, reverence for religion,
and respect for the law have nothing to
do in shaping the course that paper
pursues.

President Cleveland made another big
political blunder in telegraphing his
congratulations to Queen Victoria upon

affairs in the British domain ON jubilee

kept wisely mum on that point. He had

for Ireland has been manifested in these
United States since the introduction oi

and how very far the vexed question
between British aristocracy and Irish
peasantry is from being settled.

The salary of bank examiner should
not be collected from individual banks
as under the present system. In the
case of the recent Fidelity failure, it was
brought to light that examiners are
prevented from taking action on banks
suspected Of crooked dealings by feel
ing Of delicacy on this account. Exam
iners should be paid salary by the
government sufficient to sustain compe-
tent men in the proper discharge of their
duties, and render impossible the en-
barrassing charge that they are injuring
the bank by creating public distrust in
it, for the mere purpose of securing
wages. The examiner acknowledges
that he was aware of the Fidelity's in
terest in the wheat deal several days
prior to the time the banks checks were
thrown out in New York, but was deter
red from the examination, because he
was not absolutely certain about the
truth OF reports, and he did not wish to
embarrass the bank at this critical time.
Having this knowledge, the public is not
disposed to excuse him for apparent
negligence of duty, but his relations
with the bank must be embarrassing
under such circumstances. The govern
ment owes duty to the stockholders Of
a national bank, and it should not tram
mel the usefulness of its officers by plac-
ing them in unpleasant positions.

Money IN the Campaign.

Money In the Campaign.
1t will not come like a thunder-clap to
most people in Highland county to an.
nounce that the campaign funds" for
the successive elections Of the last few
years have contained money contributed
for the well.understood purpose Of buy
ing votes. This practice is not confined
to either party, although there may have
been those in both parties who were
conscientiously opposed TO it.
The use Of money in this !way is in
open defiance of law OF the State, and
punishable with heavy penalties. That
the practice should be allowed to con-
tinue by those to whom the manage
ment of the campaign is intrusted is not
gratifying to law.abiding citizens In
either party. The only excuse offered
for the continuation OF this dangerous
business IL that the other side does the
same thing.
OF course, this excuse can be urged
just as long as vote.buying is in vogue
in both parties. And for this reason 1t
is desirable that the exercise of this sort
of abuse be efadicated from both parties
at the same time. If the managers Of
campaigns in both parties would earnest
ly resolve to stop the use of corrupt
means, the apparent necessity that has
fostered it so long would soon disappear.
Men who hang around the polls waiting
for some candidate to purchase their
votes would by.and.by cease to expect a
purchaser.
The Executive Committees OF both
parties should take steps to destroy the
vote markets that exist in many corners
OF our own county. We are as anxious
to see the Republican party prosper as
anybody can be, but not by improper
methods. We at least should 60 far
enough with our Democratic antagonists
to secure fair play between the parties,
should they be willing to make such an
agreement.
The expenses of the campaign in hir.
ing speakers and holding meetings is
perfectly legitimate, and should be cheer.
fully paid, but bleeding" candidates
for the purpose of buying in a horde ol
purchaseable votes is not only robbine
the candidates, but it is training up an
unstable mass of voters who must be
purchased at every subsequent election
Under the present condition of affairs
the candidate is treated as if he were q
treasury ready to be drawn upon at any
moment for more funds. The fellow in
"alittle trouble" who wants "to negotiate
loan" feels perfectly free to call upon
candidate for help, and get his pay TO,
voting in advance.
Cannot this abominable business be
stopped in some way? Will not the
good Republicans of this county instruct
the Executive Committee to attempt t.
stop the work of petty demagogues il
the county, and secure pledges from thu
Democratic Executive Committee to thu
same effect? Do you say the Democracy
Of the county is not honorable, and viii
not heed its promises Then prosecut.
the violators of the law. Let Republi
cans take firm stand on the right sid,
and keep watchful eye on the Democ
racy. Corrupt practices have alread!
gone too far, and those who deprecat'
the use of money in elections should bt
energetic in securing an avowal of tn,
party condemning it.

PARKERsBuRo, w. Va, April IA ter
rible accident occurred yesterday after
noon on Indian Run, about seven miles
from Harrisonville, Richie County, in
which four men were killed and
three others badly II not fatally
wounded. About one o'clock the boiler

blowing the entire structure, which was q
good-sized mill, into kindling wood, and
fatally scalding and injuring j. Scott +.

son was blown thirty feet, and covered
with debris and wreck Of the mill; Scott,
besides being horribly scalded, was also
badly cut and bruised by heavy pieces
Of timber which struck him on tho back
and on the shoulder; Lindsey, the third
man killed, was scalded about the
face and body in fearful manner. An
other man is reported killed, but could
not learn his name. Three others, whose
names are reported as Flyn, Holiday and
Moore, were badly hurt by flying splinters
and timbers, two of them being scalded
severely. Pieces of the boiler were thrown
two hundred yards, while the building
was completely demolished and the pieces
scattered in every direction. 1t is believed
the boiler was short of water, and that
when the engineer returned he turned on
cold water, causing the explosion. ia,

PITTSBURGH, April 11.-There have been
numerous robberies on the (Pan- -Handle)
Pittsburgh, Cincinnati and st. Louis rail-
road for several months. It is alleged tho
robberies have been committed by en-
ployes, conductors, brakemen and others,
about seventy-fve in number. This morning
large number Of employees were brought
to this city. At midnight all Of the Pitts
burgh police force were started out to
make arrests. A number Of arrests have
been made. Every one is very close
mouthed, and not much can be learned.
Colonel Norman L. Smith, who has tho
case in charge for the railroad company,
says the value Of the goods stolen
is over 100000 and that several
hundred men are implicated. The
majority of these were ordered to the
city last night, and then the order to ar
rest them was given. The other suspects
were being arrested by special officers
wherever they happened to be. The opera
tions of the robbers, it is said, covered
three States, and in all of these arrests
were being made this morning. 1t is
said the robberies have been going on for

ANIMAL HEAT.
Why MIX Should BE Cooled Down o.
Quickly as Possible After Milking.

Why Milk Should BE Cooled Down ~
Quickly as Possible After Milking. .
Almost every dairymen has whole
some dread of animal heat in milk. We
have always held that animal heat, if it
were only heat, is no different from any
other heat. As milk is ordinarily drawn,
it is affected by much more than heat
alone, and in order to be regarded as
pure. needs cooling and aerating as soon
as it is drawn. Some milk dealers prac-
tice successfully milking into pals
closed by strainer cloths, or having q
straining funnel attachment to milk
into. so that not only material filth is
excluded. but also the atmosphere of
the stable. always charged with bad
odors and germs Of fermentation, and
then straining hot into bottles which
are at once closed air-tight, cooled off in
ice water and shipped well covered
with ice, summer and winter. Such
milk stays sweet. MIXED into open
pals, poured lcisurely into bottles,
closed air-tight and allowed to cool
more or less, according to the condition
OF the atmosphere, whether kept ut
home or shipped to the city, such milk
will surely have close, disagreeable
taste, and in short time will stink.
Always cool milk down as quickly as
possible after milking, by spring water
or by Ice. The cooler you got II the
better 1t will be AMI the longer 1t will
keep.-An'ertcan Dairyman.

ROUTING REED BIRDS.
A Plan to stop Their Depredations In tn
rCaro1ina Rice Fields.

A Plan to stop Their Dcpredstions In the
+, rCarolins Rice Fields.
WASHINGTON, April 10.-The rice plan
ters In South Carolina have been troubled
greatly for many seasons by the dcpreda-
tions Of the rice bird, commonly known as
the reed bird to some localities, and called
bobolinks further north. They have
had to employ large force Of men
and boys to shoot the little pests,
and this expense became so great that
they finally appealed to tho Agricultural
Bureau for help or q suggestion for some
way Of protecting their crops. One plan
ter wrote that he had expended 1900 o
year for gunners, and the purchase of pow
der and shot. The Agricultural Bureau
sent representative of the pathological
department to investigate the subject,
and he has made report, in which he
suggests novel plan for protecting tho
rice fields. He discovered that the APP
pearance Of hawk was sufficient to scare
the rice birds off, and he tried the experi-
ment ofputting stuffed hawks, with wings
extended, on high poles, and on various
other devices which kept them In motion.
The birds paid no attention to the imita-
tion hawks, but made themselves scarce
when real one scared over them. The
plan recommended by the Bureau agent
is to secure number Of young hawks,
and train them to the business of killing or
frightening the rice birds. A German who
has had experience in training falcons has
been found, who claims he can train any
number Of hawks that may be needed, and
he will be directed to go to work at once,
80 as to have his hunters ready for the 2lst
Of August next, which is the date on which
the rice birds nearly always make their
